Computer Won't Turn On

Power Source

Make sure the outlet your computer is plugged into is working. To test it, try plugging in another device such as a lamp into the outlet to make sure it works.

Broken Charger

If your computer won’t turn on, this could indicate the battery is drained. Ensure the charger is working first by plugging your computer in for several minutes before attempting to power on. Make sure there are no kinks, breaks or exposed wires. If there are, or if your device is still not turning on, you may have to buy a new charger.

The keys on your keyboard won't respond or appear to be broken or missing.

Keys Are Stuck In Place

Most keys can be removed the by using the Metal Spudger found in the Pro Tech Toolkit, or another slim object, for leverage and simply pop off. Make sure to wipe off the area underneath. Once it is sufficiently clean, snap the key back into position.
